ATA_727-200_N785AT_JFK_0698_JP_MAIN_small.jpgATA 727-200 blasts out of runway 13R on a beautiful June afternoon in New York. Very difficult to process Kodachrome slide, hence not the best color rendition

QATAR_777-300_A7-BAC_JFK_0713B_JP_small.jpgWith zero artificial light in the vicinity of the 777's rotation, you can see and get an appreciation for the intense heat inside the #2 engine as the red glow is quite evident

SATA_A320_CS-TKO_FRA_0910_JP_small.jpgSATA is a fairly exotic carrier, based in the Azores in the Atlantic

ATA_757-200_EI-LTA_MUC_0306_JP_small.jpgLook at the tail, look at the weather. Oxymoron. This former ATA 757 is in Munich being prepped for its new life with VIM Russian Airlines. Of course I just happened to be in Munich during the biggest snow storm they've had in years! Timing is everything..

qatar777-300_A7-BAB_JFK_0910.jpgQatar serves JFK daily with 777-300's. Seen here is A7-BAB on final approach to rwy 13L

qatar_777LR_JFK_0210joepries.jpgQatar has typically come in with 777-300ER's to JFK, now they are also operating the 777-200LR. Any airplane looks great in the Qatar color scheme

qatar_a310_a7-afe_jfk_909.jpgThis is the kind of color scheme that looks good on any airplane in the fleet!

qatar_A330-200_FRA_0909b.jpgQatar A330-200 inbound from Doha late in evening holds short of rwy 7L for departing traffic. Note the faint looking LH747 that just departed seconds ago (just above the Qatar titles on the fuselage). I know that my AFM (Airport Friends Munich) buddies especially like this registration

ei-ltamuc0306.jpgFormer ATA 757 rests in the most snow Munich has seen in years and figures that's the weekend I'm there! There were actually a total of 4 ATA 757s parked side by side, all with titles removed and about to be prepped by LTU Maintenance for service with VIM Airlines of Russia.

ata_738_n308tz3.jpgATA is already sorely missed! Regards to all former ATA employees
